This may or may not be relevant but Albert Spiers the 21 year old unemployed Waiter was lodging at Jamaica Row in the 1921 Census.  Unfortunately the deserted wife is not named.

So in the 1921 census Edward Albert Ellson born 1921 is in Birmingham with the Ellson family, including mum Amy Lillian.
Relation Grandchild?

Amy (relation to head is daughter) is with her Parents so yes Edward Albert is Grandchild of head.

added: Amy Lilian Spiers appears in 1935 electoral register living with a George Walter Edge in Sparkbrook--as per 1939 register.


She's with him in 1931 as Lilian Amy Spiers - Same address as 1939.
George Walter Edge's wife Nellie Spiers nee Cate? appears to have died in 1930.

There is an interesting Navy record for J/51973 Albert Spiers b 24 May 1900 Birmingham.  It seems he had a liking for jumping ship.  24 May 1900 is a corruption of both birthdays given for the Albert Wilson at Camden 1939.

Check out 171 Camden High St in 1939.
There is an Albert Wilson with 2 birth dates.  The amended date of 26 May 1900 appears to have been recorded/notified on 14 May 1942 by the DPL area.  DPL is the area code for Luton.

The Bucks advertiser April 04 1941 has a history of the Gerrards Cross Red cross detachment on its 10th Anniversary where she gets several mentions

"...In 1936 Mrs Condliffe became Assistant County Secretary, Miss E Medd taking the position of Commandant...."

"...The work of the detachment was greatly increased in 1938 , when war threatened...Miss E Medd qualified as C.A.G.S. at the Gas School at Falfield and conducted a number of demonstrations to the detachment and general public..."

"...Two of the mobile V.A.D. members were called up in October 1939, and Miss Medd, the Commandant was mobilised in December of that year, being posted as Assistant at Shenley Military Hospital, where she worked for a year; then being posted as Commandant to the V.A.D.
